As the discussion about yast/yast-registration#483 is taking some time, we have decided to propose this alternative fix until the new widget is ready. Bear in mind that the new widget will bring other improvements, but this PR should at least fix the bug described in bsc#1157780 (although it changes the behaviour). Let's consider this a Plan B :)
In a nutshell, the idea is to consider the first available product as the current one (although it is not selected) and display its information. See the screenshots below and read on to find further information.
Addon selection in Qt
Addon selection in ncurses
The problem
The selector widget considers the first element as the current one. So if the user clicks in the first element to see the details, the widget will not propagate that event (in reality, the value has not changed).
